Cat fact! In addition to cat claws causing rashes when scratched, they are also deadly lethal to rats and mice, as their saliva has bacteria that is lethal to rats and mice. So yeah, cats are venomous too!

[@WingedFish66]

Fun little factoid about Poison: Many have wondered why Ground is super-effective and resistant to it (and Rock but the latter only). A common explanation is that the ground absorbs toxins, but I think there's a better reasoning. In nature, especially in places where most plants are loaded with poison such as rainforests, many animals seek out special clay pits or cliffsides to swallow some of it. This clay then bonds with the toxins they may have ingested and allows it to pass through the digestive system safely

[@jacobyspurnger8488]

Also rubbing dirt on a bee or wasp sting makes it not hurt.

[@confused159]

7:27 This is the Furret Gang here to reassure you that the furret in this scene was ok he was quickly given an antidote and was checked for any harm to gisnorgans and blood none was found

[@Zynet_Eseled]

Ok, for goodra, it is known that their line is composed of a mixture of some sort of slime, and a corrosive acid. So, maybe with him, the "poison" is really just a chemical burn that acts similar to that of a box jellyfish sting. That's my guess. But goodra, is likely able to control this effect, to negate the acid when it comes into contact with those it trusts and cares about/cares for. That's my best guess

[@vudoga6082]

Been looking forward to this one, Poison is hands down my favorite type.

[@Graphomite]

I kind of understand Coil being poison type. It makes more sense than "withdraw," which shares the same implied action between a clam and a tortoise and can even be applied _beyond_ shell-based tactics, and has no semantic association to sea creatures in particular. At least "coil" strongly suggests a position of potential energy, like a spring, and is pretty distinct from a word like "curl," which is what you'd more naturally use to describe that sleeping ferret, or a defensive armadillo, or any posture intended to remain still, purely for rest or defense. There's only one animal immediately associated with the word "coil," and it's also an animal that we immediately associate above all other animals with venom. There are a lot worse reaches in Pokemon. So, no, not a poison word by technicality, but where else would you fit it? Especially as an Attack buff. If you look at it in a deductive way, pairing down where the move could possibly make the most sense, fitting it into Poison-typing makes more sense than fitting it in as a Normal-type, implying non-venomous Pokemon would be described as "coiling" themselves, when Defense Curl and Rest exist to describe the act of a Pokemon doing something visually similar to different effect.

i love how excited you get when you're talking about the many ways this poison can kill someone

[@MegaPokefan97]

The move poison sting as it's depicted in the Anime, is a barrage of needle projectiles. See poisoned darts, and shuriken

I think it's important to distinguish between the types of poison that are only harmful in sufficient quantities versus those that are harmful regardless of how much you take in. Some things that can cause "poisoning" (water, for example) are not actually harmful, but ingesting too much of them messes with the chemical equilibria of different systems in the body, resulting in various negative effects. These things or things with similar properties usually already exist in the body, and their levels must be kept stable. Meanwhile, other poisons (such as cyanide) are directly involved in the creation or hindrance of processes in the body and will do this regardless of how much is present. These are usually invasive compounds, or could be generated as a result of certain systems reacting poorly to either internal or external stimuli. The quantity required for the negative effects to be "noticeable" depends on what is affected and how, but the latter kind tends to require a much lower quantity and generally contains more substances considered to be among the more dangerous ones, although the level of contact required (vapor, touch, ingestion, etc.) can also affect how dangerous a poison is considered. I'm simplifying these things somewhat, but ultimately it comes down to this: don't consume wat you aren't supposed to, but don't fear something just because too much of it is bad for you.

I like the difference between getting Poisoned and Badly Poisoned in the game. Most Poison type moves have a chance to Poison the target, but only Toxic, Toxic Spikes (if used twice) and Poison Fang have a chance to Badly Poison the target.

I've been watching your videos for a while. And you actually inspired me to make up my own Pokemon region. I'd love to share ideas with you sometime. I've been enjoying your content non-stop though

[@thatSkyKosmoTactical]

I like thinking of ideas for new Pokemon and designs and even types. What is your region like?

[@psychicjellyfish9466]

I had a dumb idea... What if Purify works a bit like a chemical peel? Pyukumuku secretes chemicals that cause diseased cells to peel off of the body, leaving the user status-free (think like shed skin). Then, like the bottom feeder it is, Pyukumuku just consumes all of the dead cells to heal its own HP!

I would definetly get your lockemon game when it comes out You should probably make a playlist with all ur lockemon vids maybe you did.

[@TylerSchwein]

I think if you did a series like this for Pokémon ability’s it would be really cool!

[@EnderPryde]

Yeah, I always read Clear Smog as just being Haze but with damage, and in that sense it's not that it's "clearing" smog out, it's a smog that is itself clear in color (compared to regular smog)

I love how this video starts with the song which played at the end of the "Not Poison Type" video. Does this count as a Lockstin easter egg hahah
